ROUVY is an indoor cycling app that uses 2D outdoor video footage of cycling routes, including load and height profile, with artificially created augmentations.[1] This creates a 3D virtual environment, which is then viewed on a screen while the rider is sitting on their indoor training bike. Riders can use a "smart trainer" to replicate a real life ride as resistance in the bike is increased or decreased to simulate the actual gradient encountered on the augmented route.[2]
The app allows a variety of cycling activities for riders such as hill climbing, time trials, races, group rides, structured training plans and interval training. The app also provides detailed performance data and analytics, allowing riders to track their progress over time.[3] In 2020, most users were from the United States, Great Britain and Germany.[2]
